[15:06:38] <_CommandeR_> will there be a fix for plymouth so it will display boot screen all the time or? [15:06:45] <_CommandeR_> or is there allready a way? [15:06:56] <_CommandeR_> already* [15:07:37] you'll have to talk to Keybuk about htat [15:07:39] *that [15:07:49] it's an ubuntu integration question [15:07:56] <_CommandeR_> this is how it looks for me right now. http://dl.dropbox.com/u/2137335/Lucid/20100413_001.mp4 [15:08:20] he said earlier that there's a way to force it to always work [15:08:26] at the cost of adding 2seconds to your boot cycle [15:08:32] he didn't say what the way was though [15:08:45] your best bet is to ask him when he comes back [15:09:46] <_CommandeR_> also about the sunrise them dont know if you seen it but is it graphical intensive in any way? because i get like 2 frames on it then shutdown/reboot [15:11:00] _CommandeR_: you can test in the console to see how much cpu it eats up. That theme is rather intensive because it has very large partly transparent images [15:19:23] <_CommandeR_^ hm only 40% on cpu topps [15:19:34] <_CommandeR_> most 20% [15:19:43] yeah, then its fine on your system [15:20:00] Its probably still a bit hungry for netbooks [15:20:21] <_CommandeR_> thing is why does it play super smooth when i play it in terminal, but on launch or shutdown displays for maximum of 2 sec. [15:21:12] because the boot / shutdown have completed within 2 secs? [15:22:49] <_CommandeR_> the computers boot time is about 20 sek [15:22:52] <_CommandeR_> sec* [15:23:23] <_CommandeR_> shutdown is allot shortet but boot is quite long. [15:24:02] yeah, but on ubuntu, plymouth is only started once most of the boot has completed [15:24:17] Its not that it is slow, it is just that ist is started very late [15:24:26] <_CommandeR_> hm [15:27:34] keybuk mentioned that if you have an encrypted disk [15:27:42] then its configured to start much earlier [15:27:54] so that could be one solution for you [15:28:00] but really your best bet is to talk to him [15:28:09] or tseliot [15:28:22] halfline: you know the half bullet in the entry? [15:28:31] just noticed it is not drawn properly [15:28:33] yea [15:28:37] oh? [15:28:48] i probably screwed it up when i switched it out [15:28:50] and it accesses beyond the end of the image data [15:29:03] oh that's not good [15:29:11] you know the offset paramiters on ply_pixel_buffer_fill_with_argb32_data [15:29:16] halfline: I think we do that by starting plymouth in the initramfs if the disk is encrypted [15:29:40] I think thats the only place they are used. I was going to remove them and use a clip area instead [15:30:16] tseliot: do you know how to set that config hook up if the disk isn't encrypted? [15:30:25] tseliot: where does that get decided? when the initrd is generated? [15:31:10] brejc8: sounds like a nice clean up [15:31:11] halfline: echo FRAMEBUFFER=y | sudo tee /etc/initramfs-tools/conf.d/splash [15:31:19] then sudo update-initramfs -u [15:31:31] Sarvatt: thanks [15:31:39] _CommandeR_: you see that ^ ? [15:31:44] <_CommandeR_> yeap [15:31:59] <_CommandeR_> first one i dont get but second one i do [15:32:43] _CommandeR_: he's just saying create a file called /etc/initramfs-tools/conf.d/splash [15:32:47] that has FRAMEBUFFER=y in it [15:32:58] then after you've done that [15:33:08] rebuild the initrd for teh change to take affect [15:37:13] <_CommandeR_> hm [15:37:49] <_CommandeR_> one question why is there a need to update initramfs ? [15:38:59] <_CommandeR_> anyway seems that it did something, the splash is almost working [15:38:59] it's all documented in the README.debian file of the package [15:41:35] <_CommandeR_> well seems that the framebuffer really fixed it [15:42:23] <_CommandeR_> now the boot animation works all the time and plays without any hickup. The shuddown animation goes for 2-3 seconds but then quits but that is not an issue because the computer is fast to shutdown. [15:42:28] here's the file: pastebin.ubuntu.com/413858/ [15:42:55] * tseliot -> off for a bit [15:44:12] <_CommandeR_> think that i gonna post a short note on ubuntu forums how to fix the animation for this one and to make it work smoothly.
